Language: Greek

“Do not speculate, try to listen” is one of our core values. Fast paced everyday life renders us to automatically categorize individuals in order to avoid intimacy. As a result, we draw inaccurate conclusions as we tend to use terms to describe other people based on their external characteristics. In other words, we may label a person without really knowing their life story. Our goal is to unravel the journey of a story until it reaches its final recipient. We would like to investigate different ways and techniques in order to reproduce information. Our ambition is to “expand the time” and realize if the labels and the categorizations we may create are related to reality.  Can we share a personal story? Are we courageous enough to let our story travel and watch it transform into something else? Is this a way to teach children and teenagers how to accept diversity, be patient, and use the tool of self-criticism in their favor? Is it possible to create a school performance   based on students’ personal stories and not on a theatrical script? These questions motivated us to conceptualize the idea of this seminar in order improve the communication between teachers and students. The workshop is addressed to teachers of primary, secondary or higher education, theatre theoreticians, artists, theater educators and students of theatre/music/ visual arts.
